County pans RTD service to courts RTD bus doesn’t go to judicial center parking lot

The Regional Transportation District responded to frustration from Adams County officials on Monday about RTD buses not stopping to drop riders off at the Adams County Justice Center.

The district defends that it technically hasn’t discontinued service, and that buses still go to two nearby stops. But Adams County commissioners and officials in the 17th Judicial District said the bus needs to go to the justice center parking lot, or else it will continue to make their lives and the lives of residents more difficult.

“With a backlog of more than 700 felony cases, additional courtrooms and hours are being introduced by Chief Judge (Don) Quick to help provide each defendant with their constitutionally guaranteed right to a speedy trial,” said Quick, District Attorney Brian Mason, Sarah Quinn of the public defender’s office, and all five Adams County commissioners — Eva Henry, Emma

Chimney Hollow Reservoir project breaks ground Additional Water supply for the future

BY BELEN WARD BWARD@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

The Northern Water’s Municipal Subdistrict and the Windy Gap Firming Project celebrated its groundbreaking event a Chimney Hollow Reservoir on August 6.

“This will secure our water for the future for our kids future and grandkids,” Fort Lupton Mayor Zo Stieber said. “Fort Lupton has grown and we’ve placed increased demands on our water supply. We have a lot of water but we don’t know much Fort Lupton will grow and this guarantees the supply.”

It has taken about 22 years of permitting and planning so far.

The project, now moving into the construction phase should cost an estimated $500 million with another $650 million in improvements to the West Slope. Chimney Hollow Reservoir will hold about 90,000 acrefeet of water – enough to cover 141 square miles in a foot of water – but still smaller than Carter Lake with its 300-foot-tall dam. It will take up to four years from construction to completion.

The Windy Gap Project was completed in 1985 as a source of water storage for towns and cities on the eastern slope from the Windy Gap Reservoir.

In 2000 officials decided it would

be more efficient to develop a single project instead of having separate projects for all the municipalities.

The Chimney Hollow Reservoir will be built alongside other major improvements in Grand County and it will become a new source of water for the eastern slope towns and cities.

The reservoir participants have committed to reducing water per capita supply through water conservation according to officials.

Its regional water supply participants are Broomfield, Platte River Power Authority, Loveland, Greeley, Longmont, Erie, Little Thompson Water District, Superior, Louisville, Fort Lupton, Lafayette, and Central Weld County Water District.

“It’s going to shore up our water resources for the decades to come. It will help to ensure that we have clean supplied water for the citizens as we continue to grow,” said Chris Cross, Fort Lupton City Administrator.

Claude Hanes former Fort Lupton City Administrator has been participating in all of the meetings for over 15 years with Northern Colorado Conservancy District when the Chimney Hollow project started during his career.

“It’s going to be huge for Fort Lupton because it confirms 13 units of Windy Gap the city owns. We owned three when I came on board, then we bought 10 units when I became City Administrator,” said Hanes.

Dennis Yanchunas, Board Presi-

dent with the municipal subdistrict, said the Windy Gap project is unlike the Colorado-Big Thompson project because the water it provides is reusable. The Big Thompson project, which brings water from the Western Slope to the Front Range, provides water for irrigation which usually cannot be reused.

“It really valuable water for the participates because they can reuse it so consequently, it’s not only an additional water supply, but it’s an additional supply that can go further. It’s been in our plan for years.

And, as you probably know, most of these communities are desperately looking for additional supply,” Yanchunas said.

Brad Wind, Northern Colorado Water Conservancy General Manager, said they will have lots of challenges in Northern Colorado completing the Windy Gap Firming Project.

“All these participants in the Windy Gap Firming Project moving forward after the completion of the reservoir will enjoy a reliable water supply very important to their communities, each day year once the project is completed,” said Wind.

The reservoir is an off-channel reservoir so no river runs through the middle of it. Northern Water Project Manager Joe Donnelly, said the Chimney Hollow Reservoir will be filled with water from the existing Colorado-Big Thompson project to tap and fill the reservoir through a tunnel.

“We selected this on purpose to have an off-channel reservoir to minimize the environmental impact, and still meet the system water supply for a growing population,” said Donnelly.

All the rock and material used to build the reservoir are local and are coming from within the reservoir’s footprint.

“So, you don’t end up with a visible scar on the valley. It also allows us to avoid congestion of traffic and disturbance to the local community around here,” said Donnelly.

With the Windy Gap water rights, the cities are allowed to reuse the water. It’s an idea of water conservation the more times you can use it the less water supply a city uses.

“All of our participates will build a separate irrigation system so they can use the wastewater from the wastewater treatment plant to irrigate ball field or golf courses. It minimizes the amount water they have to divert out of the river,” said Donnelly.

Donnelly, said groups like Colorado Parks and Wildlife and Grand County are on board accepting these projects.

“It will improve the environment and the water and the water needs of the people,” said Donnelly.

“This is what our predecessors did in the 30s and in the 50s and it’s what was allowed and fed the Front Range, the development on the Front Range and at this time, it’s up to us to do that for our children and grandchildren,” said Donnelly.

Polis extends eviction protections for some renters after moratorium expired Thousands of Coloradans are still waiting for promised rent assistance

BY TAMARA CHUANG THE COLORADO SUN

A day before the national eviction moratorium ended, Gov. Jared Polis gave struggling Colorado renters more time.

On July 30, Polis extended a prior order to give renters more time if they’ve applied for help and are still waiting for the state’s emergency rent assistance program to make payments.

The national moratorium, set by the enters for Disease Control and Prevention, ended July 31.

“The demand for this state and federal aid has been immense, and these programs need time to provide aid to tenants. This directive provides assistance to Colorado residential tenants at risk for

Pinter, Lynn Baca, Steve O’Dorisio and Chaz Tedesco — in a letter sent to RTD on Jul 29.

The county officials continued, “The lack of access to public transit will restrict our ability to increase the quantity of cases heard – and could prove to be counterproductive to our goal of reducing the backlog of cases.”

The district decided to longer stop at the justice center for a few reasons, it said in a post on Monday responding to the recent letter and news stories which RTD called “misinformation.” The district said, “Service has not been terminated, as some have stated.”

Service has been modified, however.

The bus goes to Bromley Lane & Medical Center Drive — a 0.3 mile walk from the justice center bus stop — and Bromley Lane & Tower Road, a 0.4 mile walk from the justice center bus stop. Also, the FlexRide and Accessa-Ride services will go to the justice center, RTD said.

Last year, RTD shifted operators’ schedules to meet new demand with the opening of the N Line commuter rail from Denver to Thornton last September. At the time, RTD ran a regional and local route to the justice

eviction while state and federal funds are distributed,” reads Polis’ order.

The state’s Emergency Rental Assistance Program offers struggling renters up to 15 months in past-due and future rent payments. But the program experienced delays since it launched in February.

Part of the reason was the January influx of applicants after the state’s own moratorium ended, a rush that overwhelmed the housing division. But new rules to implement the federal funds also meant the state had to update its rent aid program, causing additional delays.

But tenants who applied later in the spring and learned they were approved for funding found themselves waiting for weeks and months, with limited communication from the state Department of Local Affairs’ division of housing.

Jana Happel, a staff attorney at the nonprofit Colorado Legal Services helping tenants stay housed,

said that some of her clients had waited more than two months after getting approved.

“The problem is that with all these people who’ve been approved, they can get evicted when the moratorium expires (even though) they’ve been waiting for the check to come,” Happel said in an earlier interview.

Congress allocated $690 million to Colorado just for the rent assistance program through two relief acts passed in December and March. To date, less than 5% of those federal dollars have been paid to renters, according to DOLA data.

This week, officials with DOLA blamed the delays on fraud but declined to elaborate on the extent of the fraud or why those approved have not been paid.

Polis’ July 30 order only helps residents who can demonstrate that they or their landlord have submitted an application for assistance.

The state has so far paid or ap-

center. After the N Line opened, they only kept the local route, the 520.

Meanwhile, RTD was struggling with low ridership for its Brighton bus routes, an issue that RTD has dealt with for a while. On average, there was one customer per trip who would get off at the justice center, RTD said in its post. The district didn’t note a precise length of time it obtained the data from, and whether that was before or after the N Line opened.

“Public transit is unable to operate as a door-to-door service for everyone, but RTD makes every effort to provide accessibility to final destinations recognizing that first- and last-mile connections can be a challenge,” RTD said.

Regardless of how RTD frames it, the Adams County officials indicated in their letter that they are unwavering. In addition to the July 29, Westminster City Councilman Jon Voelz said at a study session on Aug. 2 that the issue was discussed at a recent North Area Transportation Alliance meeting.

The commissioners and judicial district officials expressed particular concern for mobility-impaired residents.

They said in their letter, “It is essential that the RTD Route 520 stop at the Adams Count Judicial Center be immediately reinstated to meet the needs of our residents.”

proved $121.7 million in housing assistance to 36,858 households, though most of the funds came from state coffers or last year’s federal CARES Act. About 10,000 applicants were denied funds and another 10,000 have been submitted, are under review or are missing information, as of July 28, according to DOLA data.

Also on July 30, Polis announced that his administration would require that unvaccinated state workers be tested twice a week for COVID starting Sept. 20. Unvaccinated workers already must wear face masks indoors in public spaces.

RATES FROM PAGE 1

Tri-State announced in January 2020, but the maneuver also follows criticism about wholesale rates from member cooperatives including Brightonbased United Power.

“We are pleased with this outcome and FERC’s approval of the settlement, which provides both a significant wholesale rate reduction and rate certainty going forward for our utility members,” said Tri-State CEO Duane Highley in a press release on Aug. 3.

The federal energy regulatory commission affirmed in September 2020 that it has exclusive jurisdiction over TriState’s rates, not the Colorado Public Utilities Commission.

The price of Tri-State’s rates is one issue that United Power has criticized its parent cooperative about in a years-long debate that has led United Power to try to buy out of its contract with Tri-State. Yet, United Power didn’t celebrate FERC’s decision about Tri-State’s rate reduction, saying the problem is just as much with the flexibility of the rates as it is with

the price.

“To achieve this goal means a radical re-envisioning of the G&T (generation and transmission) model, one in which utility members can purchase as much — or as little — power as they need to support their communities,” said United Power President and CEO Mark Gabriel in a new release on Aug. 5.

Currently, United Power’s contract with Tri-State allows the Brighton company to purchase a limited amount of power, specifically renewable energy, from other companies.

Tri-State and United Power still await a decision from FERC about an exit fee that United Power would need to pay to buy out of its contract with Tri-State. A judge with the Colorado Public Utilities Commission ruled in favor of a lower exit fee that United Power came up with, though Tri-State appealed the decision with FERC. Gabriel said in the news release, “United Power does not necessarily want to terminate its contract with Tri-State, although obtaining a reasonable price for termination would be a starting point for any analysis.”

New school year anxiety higher during pandemic Health experts advise routine and structure for back-to-school

BY THELMA GRIMES TGRIMES@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

When starting a new school year in a new grade with a new teacher, it is common to face first-day jitters.

However, experts say back-to-school anxiety in 2021 is elevated due to continuously-changing rules and procedures the COVID-19 pandemic creates.

Dr. Kristin Orlowski, a psychologist with UCHealth, said elementary students and teenagers thrive on structure and consistency. In 2020, consistency and structure became unstable with online schooling, mandates, and procedures creating confusion and stress as federal, state, and local health officials grappled with how to keep children safe.

The bottom line, Orlowski said, is that online schooling is not an effective alternative to in person learning. Students fell behind in academics and social development, she said.

When students are out of sorts, stressed and depressed, Orlowski said studies show they do not retain or learn new things as well.

Like other hospitals along the Front Range, UCHealth has seen an uptick in cases involving youth and teenagers dealing with depression, substance abuse and mental illness.

UCHealth has locations in Parker, Highlands Ranch, Aurora, Lone Tree and Denver.

As school is slated to start in Douglas, Arapahoe, Adams and Jefferson counties this month, the debate over mask mandates is revving up. Orlowski said as school administrators debate whether to require masks, parent anger and frustrations are spilling over, and students are hearing it.

Dr. Anat Geva, clinician supervisor for HealthOne Behavioral Health Centers, said the biggest problem for students in the pandemic is the “unknown.”

“The other part of that is the unknown can change quickly during a pandemic,” she said. “You might have a student already stressed about a new teacher and new classroom, but there is also concern classes will get canceled or mask restrictions are suddenly put in place again. Really, everything can flip 180 degrees from one day to the next.

The unknown is always a problem.”

Geva said this has led students to be more apathetic and avoid issues altogether. Adults and children alike are ignoring news and updates because they figure it will just change tomorrow, she said.

According to studies provided by HealthOne, which serves patients in Centennial, Aurora and Ken Caryl, self-harm claims among teenagers in 2020 increased by more than 300%.

Earlier this summer, Children’s Hospital Colorado (CHC) declared a crisis in treating youth and teenagers for mental health conditions.

Experts and doctors say the primary reason for the increase in cases is the continued disruption to their

daily lives the pandemic has caused.

CHC treats young patients in Highlands Ranch, Wheat Ridge, Parker, Aurora, Denver, Centennial, Broomfield and Colorado Springs.

As medical professionals remained concerned with how youth, teens and young adults are handling the added stressors posed by COVID-19 at the start of a new school year, Orlowski and Geva agree parents and students can take steps to decrease and limit anxiety.

As the first days of school draw closer, steps to prepare for a new school year during a pandemic includes: Get back to set bedtimes - A regular bedtime helps establish routine and help students get enough sleep.

Stay on schedule - From dinner to athletics and activities, Orlowski said a set schedule and routine can help students adjust to a new school year faster.

Stop the stressful chatter Constant discussion about the pandemic, rules and frustrations with mandates can cause anxiety in children. Just talking to students about what they need to do without opinions and anger can help alleviate anxiety.

Teach students to be accepting - Orlowski said schools, parents and society are already teaching students to be accepting of everyone to avoid bullying. With the pandemic, acceptance also means masks. If a student attends a school where masks are optional, students not wearing masks should accept those choosing to wear them.

Be positive - Geva said it is important that parents and adults work to make the best of any situation. Being as positive as possible can make a difference, she said.

Students should be assured they are not alone, Geva stressed. Others are going through the same thing.

Always communicate - Geva said talking frankly with children can help a lot. Answer their questions, speak honestly and asking them how they are feeling can keep the lines of communication open.

Get help if needed - Orlowski said it is important to get acquainted with help outside the home. If a student is struggling with anxiety due to more serious issues, it may be time to seek help from school counselors or a qualified clinician.

Geva said HealthOne has behavioral health centers throughout the region, and if symptoms of depression and anxiety continue to increase, parents should consider professional help outside the home and school.

Signs of anxiety in children include: Appearing more clingy than normal Restless and fidgety Complaining of stomachaches or headaches Changes in eating and sleeping habits Expressing negative thoughts and worries Getting upset quickly Becoming more emotional than usual Struggling to concentrate Picking at their skin Being too compliant - the need to please without addressing their own anxiety.

BY ELLIS ARNOLD EARNOLD@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

School districts across metro Denver and beyond have been revising their mask-wearing policies and other rules to address the threat of COVID-19 as the new school year approaches. And frequently, those policies have met with strong objections from many -- some feeling the rules go too far and some saying they don’t go far enough.

Some districts, such as Denver, Jeffco and Englewood, have announced mask-wearing requirements inside schools, while others, like DCSD, are strongly urging that they be used but not mandating them in school buildings.

Colorado’s public-health department released new K-12 school COVID-19 guidelines in late July, but the new guidance “does not constitute statewide requirements,” a state news release said. Instead, the guidance outlines “best practices” for local governments and school districts.

With Tri-County Health Department -- serving Adams, Arapahoe and Douglas counties -- and the state deciding not to require masks, the choice of whether to mandate masks fell to school districts.

In Adams 12 Five Star Schools, masks are recommended for all students, regardless of vaccination status, but are not required. 27J Schools (Brighton area) will also not require students to wear masks indoors. But in Westminster Public Schools, all students, staff and teachers will be required to wear masks when indoors. Students in all three school districts are required to wear masks on buses.

Here’s a look at what other school districts are doing, as of

Aug. 5: • In Denver Public Schools, masks will be required for all students, visitors and staff while in all schools and buildings, regardless of vaccination status, according to the district’s website.

• In Aurora Public Schools, masks will be strongly recommended for all students who are unvaccinated, according to the district’s website. All staff who are vaccinated will not be required to wear face masks at schools and district sites. All staff members who are unvaccinated will be required to wear masks in the workplace.

• In Douglas County Schools, masks will be “strongly encouraged” for students 11 and younger when learning indoors. The same is true for students 12 and older who are not fully vaccinated.

Masks will not be required.

• Jeffco Public Schools will require in-school masking for ages 3 through 11. For students age 12 and above, masks indoors are strongly recommended for unvaccinated students and recommended for vaccinated students in alignment with guidance from Jefferson County Public Health, according to a news release.

• Littleton Public Schools is planning to start the 2021-22 school year without a mask requirement.

Schools will practice physical distancing as much as is possible without disrupting the learning environment.

• In Englewood Schools, the district announced Aug. 4 that the wearing of masks by all students, visitors and staff inside its schools will be required this fall, regardless of whether a person is vaccinated for COVID-19 or not.

ADAMS COUNTY FAIR

Two rodeo riders with a passion for riding Traditions passed down from generations

BY BELEN WARD BWARD@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

B

eyond the history and the sport, two very different riders at very different events at the Adams County Fair shared one thing: tradition.

The Professional Bull Riders (PBR) and the Charreada rodeos bring to the Adams County Fair danger, excitement, toughness, and courage from two different types of cultures and family traditions.

Mason Ward, 20, from North Platte, Nebraska rides in the bucking bulls competition with the PBR Aug. 5. The tradition of riding bucking bulls started with his dad who rode professionally. Mason started his passion as a little boy bucking sheep and calves working his way to the bulls.

“The fact that you’re doing something that shouldn’t be done. I mean, there should be no reason why someone would be able to ride a 2,000-pound bull. The feeling when you ride, nothing in life matches to it,” said Mason. His family raises bulls so in his off-time Mason is busy taking care of the bulls.

He continues to practice bucking on his bulls once a week. He runs every morning to keep in shape, build strength and flexibility.

Mason said his toughest bull was in the June college finals.

“It had never been ridden and he was a tough one.”

Mason’s plans for the future are to make it to the PBR World Championship Finals and then retire.

Charreada is an art of Mexican horsemanship a tradition that has been passed down to cowboys and senoritas. Maximiliano Moralez ,21, grew up in the small town Cuautlia, Jalisco Mexico, and was one of the featured riders at the fair on Aug. 8.

Charreada is where he learned the sport of Charreada horsemanship and has been in competition for over 10-years.

Moralez’s Charro Team performs all over Colorado lassoing wild horses, and bulls.

They also perform the Paso Del Muerte meaning step to death jumping from one horse to another with elegance and showmanship. Moralez’s Charro team is performing every weekend all over the state of Colorado to make it to the finals. Moralez future is to continuing performing with the Charro team and win competitions.

“I’m very passionate about the sport and dressing like a Charro,” Moralez said. “You feel like you are in another country, like in Mexico.”

COVID and prep sports: Schools are on their own

BY STEVE SMITH SSMITH@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

AURORA – Prairie View High School athletic director Jason Humphrey may have summed up the coming fall sports season as it relates to the ongoing battle against COVID-19.

“We’re just kind of waiting for the other shoe to drop,” he said.

The Colorado Department of Pub-

lic Health and Environment decided to let local public health officials and local officials determine protocols for in-person learning and activity participation, according to a press release from the Colorado High School Activities Association.

“Local public health officials and school districts have the autonomy to adopt stricter standards than the national and state recommendations,

based on the conditions in their area,” the release said.

Unvaccinated Aurora Public Schools’ coaches and athletes will have to get a test every two weeks.

“Masks are required for all adults indoors. Students are optional,” said Thornton High School athletic director Patrick Woytek. “Otherwise, we are about normal.”

At PVHS, there are no restrictions.

Yet. “As of right now (Aug. 6), we haven’t been communicated any restrictions or rules,” Humphrey said.

Discussions at Stargate School in Thornton are ongoing.

“But expect to be masked indoors for everyone, regardless of vacation status,” said athletic director Dave Logan Aug. 6.

College adjustments start early for Prestwich

BY STEVE SMITH SSMITH@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

NATCHITOCHES, LOUISIANA – In some cases, adjustments from highschool to college sports are an “on-thefly” proposition.

Former Brighton and Frederick high school pitcher Chase Prestwich started that process during a program at Northwestern State.

“Summer Bridge was a chance for freshman athletes to come to campus early, meet other freshmen athletes and take a summer course,” Prestwich said. “A typical weekday

included breakfast in the cafeteria with other athletes, going to study hall, attending class, lunch together at the cafeteria, weights and usually working out on our own at the field.

“Sometimes in the evenings, we had meetings and activities like learning about nutrition and a cooking contest,” he added. “On weekends, nothing was scheduled.”

Some 30 athletes, including a halfdozen of Prestwich’s new baseball teammates, participated.

“Athletes were almost always separated by sport,” he said. “We had a few activities together like a

cooking contest, an ultimate football game and a movie night.”

The program was a help.

“Being there with some of the team and getting to know the routine of the upcoming fall semester was most helpful,” Prestwich said.

“It helped me because I got to know everyone and know what being a student-athlete is going to be like.

“And the campus wasn’t full of students, while I was there, still figuring everything out.”

Summer Bridge wasn’t all about sports. Prestwich finished two college-level courses during his senior

year at Frederick High School.

“I took one class during the fourweek summer school and attended study hall every day,” he said. “I got to work with the Demon athletic academic coordinators who will also be helping me during the regular school year.”

Family ties and a love of the area were part of the reasons Prestwich made his college choice.

“It was awesome to be in Natchitoches,” Prestwich said. “I love the people and the food. I am looking forward to fall and meeting the rest of my teammates.”

SPORTS BRIEFS Baseball The Colorado High School Activities Associa-

tion’s all-state baseball team included Adams City’s Gerardo Caldera.

The senior catcher/pitcher was an honorablemention selection.

Families being priced out of local housing market

BY THELMA GRIMES TGRIMES@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

It is no surprise that local families are feeling frustrated and burnt out in the current housing market as national economist Elliott Eisenberg says Colorado is going through a California problem.

In January, Eisenberg, of econ70. com, compared the Colorado housing market to a car cruising down the interstate. Before the pandemic in 2019, all signs were stable and cruise control was set at 65 mph.

In 2020, it slowed down to about 25 mph. In 2021, the market spun out of control, hitting 95 mph.

There are several factors contributing to the current market conditions, but mostly, it is the California problem, Eisenberg said.

“For a long time, the California problem stayed in California,” Eisenberg said. “But now it is coming to Colorado as people in California are saying `hell with it’. The housing prices are too high, taxes are too high, the cost of living is ridiculous. They are jumping ship and heading to Denver.”

The problem, Eisenberg said is that Colorado was already falling behind in building enough homes, add in a continually growing population and the market becomes a problem, he said.

According to the Denver Metro Real Estate Market Trends Report for July, Colorado gained 50,000 new residents between July 2019 and July 2020. Since 2010, the state has added 76,000 new residents, the eighth-highest growth rate in the U.S. Jill Schafer, a member of the Den-

ver Metro Association of Realtors (DMAR) and agent for Kentwood Real Estate, said there is an incredible lack of inventory across the Denver Metro Area’s 11-county market, which includes Adams, Arapahoe, Boulder, Broomfield, Clear Creek, Denver, Douglas, Elbert, Gilpin, Jefferson, and Park counties.

Schafer said with population increases, local families are being forced to “drive until they find something they can afford.” Schafer explained a ripple effect, using her son as an example. He and his family could no longer afford the increased cost of homes in Denver, which meant driving south. He was lucky to land in Castle Rock, Schafer said, but by the time he moved in, his home value had already increased by tens of thousands of dollars.

Shawn D., who wished for his last name not to be used, said his family of five are currently living in a rental home in Highlands Ranch.

Shawn said the “insane” housing market along the Front Range has he and his wife questioning their move to Colorado from Florida two years ago.

Shawn said they sold their Florida home for $280,000, making him feel like they had a good down payment and would be fine in moving to Colorado. Instead, they have been met with one let down after another.

Shawn described a market where they get on waiting lists for new housing developments that only becomes a lost cause.

Shawn, who works in downtown Denver when he is not working remotely, wanted to buy in Highlands Ranch. When that became too difficult, they started driving all over.

Lamb in Castle Rock. Trying to sell her current family home to move into a bigger home with extra property has been a nightmare, Lamb said.

“We put our home up for sale and it is at two weeks on the market,” she said. “No one expected that, which means when we are putting contingency offers for homes we want to buy. Sellers do not want to because a bigger cash offer will likely come later.”

Lamb described a market where she and her husband submit an offer $40,000 above asking price one night, only to be outbid by someone offering $80,000 above asking the next morning.

Lamb said they like Castle Rock and want to make sure their children remain in the same school, but the housing market is driving them to look in Elizabeth, Franktown, and Colorado Springs.

Espinoza said he advises his clients to wait if they can, hoping something will become available in the area families want to live. But he admitted the current market is creating a lot of stress and frustration.

Shawn said one of the most frustrating parts of trying to find a home is that it feels like families like his are no longer welcome in the Denver Metro Area.

Eisenberg said Shawn is not wrong. As Californians make a lot of money selling their homes and move to Colorado, they have the funds to spend.

“You have really rich people coming to a market where prices are great and spending an extra $80,000 above asking price is no big deal. It means nothing to them,” he said.

Shawn said they have put offers on homes in Castle Rock, Evergreen, and anywhere else they could in the Denver Metro Area. They even considered homes in Bailey, which were also overpriced, he said.

Adrian Espinoza, a Coldwell Banker real estate agent in Lakewood, said inventory is the biggest issue for clients looking for a first home, or families and couples looking to upgrade.

Espinoza said on any given day across Front Range, there are 5,000 homes up for sale. In a normal market, he said there should be between 20,000 and 30,000 listings. The lack of inventory cuts options for clients and drives prices higher.

In January, DMAR estimated there were more than 24,000 active listings along the Front Range. In July, there were just over 3,000 homes up for sale.

A Zillow report estimates home values along the Front Range have increased by an average of 20% from the same time last year. In Douglas County, the median home price is $656,281, a 20.1% increase from 2020. In Jefferson County, the median home price is $584,544, a 21.8% increase. Arapahoe County has the lowest increase, with the median home price of $490,501, a 16.3% increase.

Espinoza said the problem with the reports listing median home prices that seem reasonable is that there is not enough inventory to sustain those numbers. Espinoza said in Castel Rock alone, homes are being scooped up so quickly and above asking, that there are few choices in the $600,000 range.

If you cannot afford to pay the fees of legal counsel, you are advised that the Court will appoint legal counsel to represent you at no cost to you upon your request and upon your showing of an inability to pay.

YOU ARE FURTHER ADVISED that a grandparent, aunt, uncle, brother or sister of the child must file a request for guardianship and legal custody of the child within twenty days of the filing of the motion to terminate parent/child legal relationship.

If you have any questions concerning the foregoing advisement, you should immediately contact either your legal counsel or the Court.

Done and signed this 30th day of July, 2021.
